by Recoe Walker A few people have asked me, "Why haven't you written

anything about Black History month?'' My response to tliat ques­ • • tion was, "Every month should be Black History Month, not just • • • February. And why February? Nobody asked me or anyone I • • know what month Black History should be . And with the month of • • February, we're getting a raw deal. Check it out. First, February is • • • in the winter. Historically speaking, winters don't rate very. high • • with black folk (did you know more people freeze to death in the • • • • winter than any other time of the year?). Why not have black • • history month in the spring? That way it'd be kind of symbolically • • synonymous with rebirth and the miracle metamorphosis that is • • associated with spring. • • • Why not have it in May? May is a good month. It's not'too cold,~ • • • not too hot, we'd be finished for the semester. Maybe cur income • taxes would have returned by then so we'd have a lil'casl\ to blow • • or donate to our favorite black cause. And May is a helluva lot • • easier to spell than February.
